I probably will never get around to listening to this but maybe.. Despite the fact that she writes her lyrics and maybe produces a track here and there is very unimpressive to me. Avex owns her.. and they work her like wh0|23

I really liked her music when I first got into the whole thing about 2.5 years ago.. I had her whole back catalog to analyze.. but now I'm just bored of her. Maybe its because I cannot understand her words but from the translations and thorough reading on certain aspects of her music I've found them to be all over the place and very odd.

As far as how music is produced.. her record label tells her which songs of hers they will put on the album.. who will make what beat for her.. and which takes of her vocal recordings they will use. She doesnt make the music.. (this is how 99% of major labels operate with ALL their artists)

But maybe avex is special for her.. or maybe not.

Yes,she has composed(not all her works) as well as written her all her lyrics.Surprised she's not self-producing already.If Kameda or Dai Nagao aren't working with an artist under Avex then there is a good chance that they are set for a long career.Those guys seem to be Avex Tracks master trump producers and composers.They make hits.Kameda has a lot a freedom do to it too it seems."Nah,I can't take on any new artist for the year,I got a Tokyo Jihen tour/Album coming up.",and this has happen 4 times within the past 5 years and he still has his avex's job.Avex's isn't slow on dropping dead weight so he's doing something right.

Friends have tickets to see Ayumi at the Osakajo Hall on the 29th July, watching Ayumi, and also Koda on full HD, is truly awesome, on the new TV panels here, the colours and skin tones give a glorious feeling of being stood right next to her, 13gb of Ayumi must also included her full DNA code, I mean is there enough time left on this earth listen to such a complete collection ?

I hope neither Ayumi or Koda slow down, they have a amazing longevity, and according to Ayumi wiki , Ayumi revealed that an inoperable condition has caused complete deafness in her left ear, and condition dating back to 2000.
Does any member know if either Ayumi or Koda have penned any of there own songs?

The Remix albums are 5 gigs themselves.I had to put them in a separate folder from the Studio albums. O.O The only thing I own near as much of has to be Namie or Koda.I have 20 yrs of the Pillows and it's not near as much as Ayumi's!

Excuse me good sir, :D NEXT LEVEL was released THIS year.March to be exact.This doesn't shock me at all...I have her whole discography digitally and it takes up about 13gb.She needs a vacation...and Have you guys been listening to you Rule/Sparkle singles?! That Green(Spring CMJK mix) is the bestest!!!!And no pun intended,Spring really is with the title of the song.


I haven't listened to Ayu in a while, not even NEXT LEVEL. And she does need to take a break, her music is eating up your hard drive. xD I suppose that includes a ridiculous number of remixes she released.

Of course it's upbeat, it's summer! And when there is news that Ayu will be releasing a single during the summer...well, we know what that means. This is supposedly the preview: click.

Even though they tend to sound re-hashed, Ayu's upbeat, "summer-y" songs are pretty good. So it's cool with me.
